Play-off places will be on the line in the final round of the regular season, when the South African derby kicks off at 15h05 on Saturday at DHL Newlands.

The forward pack that started in the victory against the Sunwolves last week remains unchanged, while fit-again hooker Scarra Ntubeni features in the only change among the forward replacements.
There is an all-new halfback pairing of Jano Vermaak and Josh Stander, while Damian de Allende is back in midfield and Seabelo Senatla returns from injury to take his place out on the wing.
